Does the property security have the right to ask visitors to show their ID cards?

Only the competent department can check the resident identity card. It is inappropriate and illegal for property security to ask visitors to show their identity cards and registration numbers, and visitors can refuse. Article 15 of the Law of the People's Republic of China on Resident Identity Cards clearly stipulates that the people's police can perform their duties according to law, and in some cases, they can check their resident identity cards upon showing their law enforcement certificates. In addition, for the security problems mentioned by the security guard, when encountering foreign visitors, the security guard can contact the owner for confirmation to ensure safety.
